Mourinho said at his official presentation Monday that the Spanish team needs to add three or four new players this offseason, although he did not specify which.

The coach was speaking alongside Madrid managing director Jorge Valdano, who confirmed Mourinho has signed a four-year deal.

Answering questions in Spanish, English and Portuguese at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, the new coach said he could not guarantee Madrid will win the Champions League for the first time since 2002 under him.
